“…As evidence mounts regarding the lack of fit between an acute care medical system and the health care needs of persons with disabilities, psychologists working in this area will face new challenges (Frank, 1999). Consensus regarding basic definitions and measurement strategies is not on the horizon.…”

Efforts to persuade policymakers to rely on data to plan health care services for people with a disability or a chronic illness must confront the fact that many competing definitions of disability are currently used. It is important to recognize that pressures for standardization as well as disputes over disability definitions take place in a broader social and political context. Despite the practical difficulties facing researchers and the highly charged atmosphere in which disagreements over definitions must be managed, researchers have made progress in developing policy-relevant data that underline the importance of the health needs of people with a disability.In his memoir, novelist Reynolds Price (1994) described the care he received for a spinal cord tumor. As a faculty member at Duke University, Price was treated in the medical school there. Yet, he found the most crucial contributions to his recovery were made by services far removed from the acute care system. An inpatient rehabilitation program restored a lost sense of control. A biofeedback program brought relief from the previously intractable chronic pain that had sapped his will to live. Also important were arrangements he made, and paid for out of pocket, for a live-in personal care assistant, whose help enabled Price to resume many of his professional roles. Price's recovery, which exceeded all expectations, was nearly derailed, however, when he was struck with panic attacks and severe symptoms of depression, conditions that may have been needlessly prolonged when they were treated with anxiolydcs. In another memoir of life with a spinal cord tumor, the late Columbia University anthropologist Robert Murphy offered an insider's glimpse of what some experts have labeled

“…This multifactorial nature of work role behavior means that attempting to change current role behaviors is a complex undertaking. Yet, within rehabilitation settings (and also primary care settings) change is clearly needed if increased opportunities for rehabilitation psychologists are to be provided (see Frank, 1999). One potentially attractive area for increased use of behaviorally-oriented rehabilitation psychologists is that of tertiary prevention following disabling injury.…”

“…Rehabilitation professionals recognize that it is possible for a disabling problem to have no or minimal impact on an individual. Frank (1999) recommended that the practice of rehabilitation psychology be viewed as the application of psychological constructs to the care of individuals with chronic health conditions that are often, but not necessarily, disabling. A career rehabilitation mindset, should, however, consider latent vocational handicaps that may ultimately affect an individual.…”

The concept of career rehabilitation, a paradigm that proposes integrating perspectives from vocational rehabilitation and career development, is introduced. Counselors are encouraged to assess how vocational handicaps secondary to a disabling problem can affect a client over his or her "worklife" and to adopt a life-span approach to career decision making of people with disabilities. Four common vocational handicaps are discussed: diminished access to work opportunities, need for workplace accommodations, employer bias in hiring and advancement, and diminished "worklife" expectancy. Counselors testifying in legal forums are encouraged to pursue scholarship on the career development of people with disabilities.
